Bill O’Reilly, Learn to Count

8:10 PM, 9/14/09

Unbelievable. Just unbelievable. O’Reilly just stated that the D.C. Tea Party had 75,000 attendees. O’Reilly later explained that he got the number from “Fire Officials”. What “Fire Officials”, Bill? Specifically. What official? What’s your source? Is he by chance a union member? What time was this count done?

O’Reilly just needs to go against conservatives sometimes to prove he’s independent. Problem is, he often chooses the wrong thing to go against! I can’t imagine he can really believe the 75,000 number. I think he might have been trying to say 750,000. Idiot!

No, O’Reilly stated the number, and was challenged by a guest. He then repeated the number 75,000 citing the D.C. Fire Dept. I checked the Web and found several references of 75,000 via the D.C. Fire Dept., but no original source. I think O’Reilly took a quick look on the Web and ran with it. Sad.
